I just saw where New York city raised the price of cigarettes to eleven dollars...Yes! Eleven dollars for a pack of cigarettes in New York...they're calling it a "sin tax."
Forgive me if I sound cynical here, but of course these politicians are doing this because they have a passion for saving lives...and not because the state has a huge budget shortfall.
I have an idea for a "sin tax."
Let's apply it for all politicians who pass laws all over this country...If the politician "sin's"...he/she gets taxed!
Think about this for a second...a politician lies, steals, cheats on his/her spouse, promises something but does something else...SIN TAX!
We'd have the budget balanced in no time!
